• Thread one end of the rope through the hole in the top of
the red handle so “NOTICE” reads right side up as
shown.
• Secure with an overhand knot at least 25mm from the
end of the rope to prevent slipping.
• Thread the other end of the rope through the loop of the
manual release cable.
• Adjust the rope length so the handle is no higher than
1.8m above the floor. Secure with an overhand knot. If
the door is greater than 2.5m in height the release cord
extension kit accessory is required.
NOTE: Final adjustment of the handle height should be
completed after the opener is installed. If it is
necessary to cut the rope, heat seal the cut end to
prevent unravelling.
